The Asian Pacific American (APA) Studies program offers undergraduate courses, two undergraduate minors, and graduate advising for students at MSU. The program promotes a broad understanding of the histories, cultures, and contemporary concerns of diverse Asian Pacific Islander Desi American (APIDA) peoples in the US and the Asian Diaspora. Deeply rooted in experiences of racially minoritized people in America who came from all parts of Asia and the Pacific region, the APA Studies program is dedicated to achieving Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI) across and beyond MSU campus. The program is also a vibrant, active center for all members of the MSU community interested in the experiences of APIDAs as part of richly diverse US society, culture, and politics in both national and international contexts.
